Still a work in progress. Just basic mods for now like Flush mount hood emblem, CF front lip and rear trunk wing. Lowered with Star and The Wheels are 19" TSW Zolders. It is tuned also by AMS in chicago on the stock pulley

Clear corners are purchased I just have to toss them on... been lazy lol.

Pulley, HE, IC pump is in the near future. Sorry for the pic quality, they are just cell phone pics.

Car looking really good. Can I ask who did your star lowering and how much it ran you. I need to get that done asap.

btw... there is a thread going for Chicago meets. We need to do one again soon if you wanna join.

AMS in West Chicago did the lowering on the car. Thank you for the kind words

Thanks for the tip on the meet. I might have to do that.

I agree - love the wheels in your sig !! (what are / were they?) Love the new set-up as well, but not a fan of tires that have less tread width than the wheel.

Anyone know who rolls fenders in the LA area ?? I'm getting too much rub on bigger bumps with my new rear tires.

TIA

I agree too. The style of the wheels and the rest of the car is sick no doubt, but the stretched tire and wheel sticking out of the fender looks like you wish you had a 240sx beater. It's all good though... You're not the only one who likes that look at this time.

I like the old setup better too. But it's your car, so who cares what we think

I prefer the old wheels as well, but kudos on fitting 12" in the back.

I like the new wheels a lot, but I am a total "stance" hater. I think "poke" looks sloppy. Sorry but growing up close to Newark, NJ with every maxima on poorly fitted wheels, this reminds me of those days. I wish they were an inch narrower, but I know you're gonna get a new set in a few weeks.

They're crisp as hell. I don' have the ***** to run 20's here in NY, but this setup looks ridiculous. I love it. Doesn't look like you have too much rear neg camber either, considering that width/offset. Slick, bro. I saw these pics on Stanceworks today. Wow. Much jelly.
